For month waiting for transfer to reopen, just to see that Cerberus now out of the list and marked as congested. So, is this mark permanent, or after few hours/days i finally can transfer myself to friends?

Cerberus is one of the most congested EU world, but I believe the “open for transfer” depend on active players count. I have see it turn green sometime. Suggest you keep an eye on it especially mid patch where the least players

Semi-permanent. Servers marked "Congested" will stay that way until SE decides to change the status. Changes in server status always happens together with server maintenance, and will be accompanied by a message on Lodestone and in the launcher about changes in Congested/Preferred worlds.
So no point checking every few hours/days.
